Your teammate is on a different strategy. It's called plan F. Do you understand?
A Fernando Is Faster Than You post.
Your manager says they've decided to let Jake lead the pitch, just this once, and could you send him your slides? You made the slides. Jake made a coffee. Christmas dinner. "Your cousin's just bought a house, isn't that lovely?" You confirm that you understood the message. Your nine-year-old fixes the TV in three button presses. You had been at it for twenty minutes with the manual open on your knee. The person on the treadmill next to you started after you, is running faster, and is also reading a book. **How it came about:** at Hockenheim in 2010, while team orders were banned, Ferrari's Rob Smedley told Felipe Massa "Fernando is faster than you... can you confirm you understood that message?" Massa let Alonso by and Smedley said "Sorry." Ferrari were fined $100,000 and the ban was dropped the next year. **Why it caught on:** it's the most polite way ever invented of saying "move", and everyone knew exactly what it meant - which is why it fits every moment you're told, nicely, to step aside for the favourite.
